Picture perfect cottage. Unbeatable location. City of Decatur Gem is move-in ready and priced to sell. Light filled home sits up from the street and feels very private. This home lives large with an open living area spans the front of the house, includes a cozy fireside nook and leads to a versatile flex room (Den, Office, Studio, Playroom, Third or Guest Bedroom) and out to a deck overlooking the private fenced yard. Sunny winter deck becomes a shady retreat under a canopy of trees come spring. Home features: hardwood flooring throughout, recently renovated kitchen and bath, new designer lighting, newer systems and services including a 50 year roof installed in 2012. All of the big stuff has been taken care of. A drive under garage and unfinished basement w laundry, loads of storage and a convenient half bath complete the package. Chelsea Heights is a vibrant walking community steps away from Hidden Cove Park and walking distance to Westchester Elementary, downtown Decatur, Emory Village, CDC, Decatur YMCA. Enjoy today and expand down the road. Permanent attic stairs facilitate future options. Chelsea Heights has low turnover as homeowners renovate and expand rather than moving out of this very special community. Neighborhood events include: Halloween Potluck, Annual Holiday Tree Lighting and Holiday Lights Contest...more. Here's your chance to live in this coveted Decatur community. Come see.
